Volvere

About the Volvere

The AVID Volvere is a high-end turntable that delivers substantial bass with weight and power rare in its class, while maintaining a very low noise floor that allows instruments to float clearly in the soundscape with excellent front-to-back depth and left-to-right width. The turntable incorporates a bespoke external DSP signal-generating power supply that removes mains signal vagaries and allows precise motor speed calibration for pitch-perfect playback. Its variable frequency suspension system (tuned at 3.5Hz) effectively isolates the cartridge from external vibrations, while the twin belt drive system with a high-torque 55mNm AC synchronous motor—typically four times more powerful than common alternatives—maximizes platter dynamics for superior timing and rhythm preservation. The design features a unique inverted stainless steel bearing with tungsten carbide/sapphire thrust point, a 6.7kg aluminum platter, and a fixed cork mat with screw-down record clamp. The turntable accepts tonearms via SME template fitting with available adapters for Linn or Rega mounts, and comes without tonearm or cartridge in the base configuration.
